SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Residential and commercial buildings produce 50 percent of the carbon emissions in the developed world. Reinventing Green Building combines a unique insider's critique of the lack of large-scale carbon reduction from certified green buildings with a potent vision for the future. Yudelson's proposed data-driven approach takes maximum advantage of new cloud-based technologies to cut costs and expand marketplace adoption."--
